Dieting without influence

okay so for the past 2 weeks I have been eating right and exercising everyday. I have passed up so many sweets in the office, I went out one night and had salad and water, not my norm hamburger and 2 beers.

So now they are having an office party, and a really nice lady hands me a sliver of cake. I take 2 bites and get caught throwing it out! I feel so silly now. 3 people came up and asked me if I did not like it.

Then tomorrow night, everyone is going out after work for drinks. This is so frustrating. I haven't been out in 2 weeks. But I want to lose weight on my saturday weigh in. I know I should stick to lite beers or vodka with no mixers, but dieting=no life!!!!

I am either chunky and having a good time or slimmer sipping on H2OChat Icon

It's hard to have willpower when going out w/ friends! Try to do extra good the rest of the week and maybe you can have a slice of cake or a drink or two when you are w/ others. This is what I try to do to make up for the bad stuff I eat/drink.

Re: Dieting without influence

Chat Icon thanks!! 3 weeks ago I went to a BBQ and had too many beers. I went home that night and my dad invited me for a run. I felt gulity that I drank so many calories, that I said sure(I was totally buzzed) and went running. Well..I was totally annoying. I kept swating non existant bugs, laughing, and not running straight. The good time guilt kills me!!!

but if I go out tomorrow, then do soooo good on Friday and run at night, but you know what that means, staying home on Friday.

Too bad weed is illegal!! calorie freeChat Icon

Re: Dieting without influence

Dieting has got to be the hardest thing to do. It's all proportion...have a drink, ONE drink and hold on to it all night (sip it so it goes down slower Chat Icon )

Re: Dieting without influence

thanks all!!! It is funny because I am not really a sweets eater and I can go to bed on an empty belly, but giving up the drinking is hard!!!!!! For the last 2 weeks I have been exercising and putting myself to bed early. I have been bored out of my mind.

Karissa-I hear you about the BBQs I have to go to one on Saturday and one on Sunday. I have gotten into the habit of throwing out 1/2 my burger, or 1/2 my hot dog. Too much pressure, especially when I have to stare at my beanpole DH all dayChat Icon

Re: Dieting without influence

it is so hard- i have been having to be extra careful this summer- between all the lunches and dinners withthe girls- it adds up...

Heres what I have been doing:

I try to eat healthy during the week and leave one day during the weekend where I can eat what I want- however I watch my portions...

just cutting out the drinks- sugar drinks i enjoy like gatorade and vitamin water make a HUGE difference. I stick to lots of water during the week. no soda- it bloats...

If i do go out for drinks i stick to light beer or my vodka/seltzers double limes.... ill have wine once and ahwhile but will stick to white...

if i eat a burger, i eat the bun- ill eat half.

ive switched from whites to whole grains- whole wheat breads, bagels and rice.

and i try to exercise even though I HATE it with a passion...

Try vanilla vodka w/ diet coke. I drink it every time I go out. It tastes like cream soda and has very little calories.

don't you love vanilla vodka!! I drink it with diet coke or diet gingerale(when I make it at home)

I have been on a no soda kick, so I drank straight vodka on the cruise. It wasn't that bad at all.

I only drink absolute, have you tried absolute raspberry and diet coke? It is so good.
